duo attorney
I have known Doug for 20 years, i have used his services, relating to drug charges and more recently DUI charges. he worked relentlessly to have the charges reduced or dropped completely. I am very satisfied with his work and I have recommended him to family and friends in need of an attorney.

Unfair, Lazy, and Does not answer phones
I hired this attorney for a DUI. He never wanted to answer his phone and all it did was go to voicemail. He was so hard to track. When it came to court he showed up late and was very unprofessional. I ended up firing him and hiring someone else. He also quoted me very high for my DUI and didn't do an...

Replied last November 18, 2016I believe this review to be completely fiction for the following reasons. First off, every call I receive is sent to my cell phone. I either answer it or respond to it via text message. I never wait more than 2 hours to call or text back a client. That is my policy. Second, if I am ever late to court, which is rare, the courtroom, the Judge, and the client are always aware of the fact. I have spent 22 years going to court everyday and enjoy an excellent reputation with every judge in Philadelphia and Montgomery county, PA. Third, My fees especially for DUI cases are very reasonable. I don't know what not doing anything on time means but I welcome the opportunity to speak to the "anonomous" person who posted this review. I also don't know what my office being a disaster means. I maintain a very professional office and try to cater to all my clients in a professional and courteous way. Not everyone can always be satisfied with everyone. Some people simply have it out for you if the case does not go your way. Nothing is guaranteed in the area of criminal defense law, and I am sorry that this person had a bad experience, although I don't know who it might be.
